 Masonic quotes by Brothers

SECURITY OR LIBERTY

Two words. One is strange and unlike America. That word is security. The other word is America itself. That word is Liberty.

Security as it is used today is an illusion which leads to enslavement. Liberty exalts mankind.

Security is a dead-end street. Liberty is the path of wonderful adventure.

Security is decay. Liberty is growth.

Security is death of effort. Liberty is the life of endeavor.

Security is the man of 40 who is 65. Liberty is the man of 65 who is 40.

Security is of little faith. Liberty is the immortality of earth and heaven.

Security is the frown of bookkeeping. Liberty is the smile of confidence.

Security promises much and delivers a pittance. Liberty promises nothing and yields a harvest of plenty.

Security is the mirage of minds that settle for guardianship. Liberty is the mind that lives above the crowd.

Security dwarfs the soul. Liberty is the Shekinah.

Security is the foul air of lost hopes. Liberty is the fresh air of Spiritual Light.

Security lies in a marble vault. Liberty lives in the Sunlight of today.

Security is the object that holds our attention while Liberty slips from our grasp.
